With three balls remaining, KL Rahul and company defeated the Men in Yellow by six wickets thanks to a stunning century from Marcus Stoinis. With four victories and an equal number of losses from eight games, the reigning champions are presently ranked fifth on the points table. When they play the Sunrisers on Sunday, they will hope to resume their winning ways.

The defending champions are ranked third on the points table, and a victory on Sunday would move them up to the second spot, ahead of Kolkata Knight Riders.
